...back to school...When did that happen?

I think it is because of the legalities of minimum days of school for the school to get it's money. Now most of them have about two weeks of emergency days set aside. So now, they call off school for small events (like a snowflake hitting the ground in Houston). Instead of the kids going to school most days, regardless. I think they have more holidays also now.

Hi jpg! That's right, it does seem like school starts earlier nowadays. Well, some of the stuff going on around here this week is actually pre-school activities, with school classes starting next Monday.

I'm still sitting on my hands in this market right now. I had such a good past 4-5 weeks that I'm can coast for now. I don't get a good feeling about the market right now, jpgill. I get this way several times a year, usually when I've been on the road a lot or otherwise distracted for a bit where I can't watch it every day. I guess that I get out of the grove, so to speak, and I've learned the hard way to just wait it out in those instances.
